Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Diabetes can lead to various complications within the urinary system, including kidney damage (diabetic nephropathy), which is a common complication due to high blood sugar levels affecting the kidneys' filtering system. Graves' disease primarily affects the endocrine system, specifically the thyroid, and does not directly involve the urinary system.
